I was hanging out with my gearhead pals at a local classic car cruise-in and we saw one of these (exactly like this one in every way, sans the LTL sign, spotlight and cushioned front seat) - a 1919 Olds:

Right away I thought of you and your comic.

OMG LOOK AT THAT SWEET RIDE!!! Thank you for sharing the picture Peter!! So funny that you posted that today, apparently there's an antique/classic car show going on today but it's like an hour or so away and I didn't know about it until it was too late to make plans to go This helps to soothe the burn of missing it

I don't know much about 'em, but I love lookin' at 'em. Great memories of going around to the shows when I was little with my dad and probably my mom and aunt. In reality it probably happened one time, but it stuck with me

I seriously don't understand why women feel the need to shave their legs. Though I guess once you start you have to continue and most teenage girls feel pressured to once everyone else starts (so I've heard).

Also we may have just discovered why the Victorians became such prudes, fast transport.

A lot of people in this society at least have a serious issue with body hair in general. I think I missed that memo :/ Even people that look like rugs don't really bother me, I just pity them when it's warm since it must be uncomfortable.

I find that issue of body hair is another case of fake beauty standards perpetuated by media, which don't align the least with actual taste of population.

But a fact that is not very well known among us men is that women primarily fix themselves for other women, not for men. Average men, as you figure, will not pay attention to details too much, and it's terribly easy to sway them with minimal effort. Throw on a mini skirt of any kind, you don't even have to have particularly great legs, and you'll have half of guys turning their head. It's other women that scrutinize you and roll their eyes if you've missed a depilation term or if your mascara is tiny bit smudged, and apparently many women feel a lot of pressure under the gaze of their own sex. So it's very pointless to try to explain to women that we don't all like impossibly skinny girls or blond hair or whatnot, because they actually can't care less about what we think.

Edit: On the other hand, there are things that completely puzzle me, such as this fad of shaving pubic hair to nothing that media is full of, or, for that matter, thongs? Why did we let barely literate gangsta rappers dictate to us what to like?
